Abstract/Notes: Erik H. Erikson wrote three articles when he was in his late-twenties and an up-and-coming member of the psychoanalytic community in Vienna. At the time he wrote these articles, he was in a training psychoanalysis with Anna Freud, teaching at the Heitzing School in Vienna, and learning the Montessori method of teaching. These articles focus on the loss of primary narcissism and the development of the superego (or punitive conscience) in early childhood, especially through the child’s conflict with maternal authority. They support the idea that melancholia, with its internalized rage against the mother, is the inevitable outcome of the loss of primary narcissism. I note, however, that the third of these articles makes a case for the restorative role of humor, especially when Freud’s view that humor is a function of the superego is taken into account.

Abstract/Notes: When this vision is opened up he will be fascinated to such an extent that he will value the cosmic laws and their correlation more than any simple fact. [...]the child will develop a kind of philosophy, which teaches him the unity of the universe. "If one day UNESCO resolved to involve children in the reconstruction of the world and building peace, if it chose to call on them, to discuss with them, and recognize the value of all the revelations they have for us, it would find them of immense help in infusing new life into this society which must be founded on the cooperation of all." In September 1898, she speaks at a national pedagogical conference, in Turin, Italy, and addresses the audience about a new way of teaching children who were previously thought to be unteachable. 1900-1902 In the year she turns 30, Montessori is appointed director of Rome's Orthophrenic School, a model school for training teachers of children with developmental disabilities. 1910 Two parallel teacher training courses are held in the Franciscan convent on Via Giusti in Rome, where there is a model Children's House.

Abstract/Notes: This invention consists of a device for teaching small children multiplication. For this purpose I form a rectangular frame, preferably of wood having on it a number of parallel vertical wires on each of which are strung ten beads. Preferably there are nine such wires. At the bottom of the frame opposite the enid of each of the wires is placed the AD figure 0, and at the top of the frame reading from the right to the left opposite the ends of the wires are placed the numbers 1, 10, 100, and so on (if there are nine wires) up to a hundred million respectively. Preferably the three numbers up to 100 are printed in the same colour on the same background, the numbers 1000 to 100,000 are painted in the same colour and ea on the same background, but with the colour of the printing or the background different from that of the former three numbers and similarly the numbers a million to a hundred million, the printing or the background of all three being the same but differing in one or other from both of the foregoing sets of figures Preferably the beads are in three colours, those on the wires corresponding to the figures 1, i000 and a million being the same colour, those on the wires corresponding to the figures 10, 10,000 and 10 million being the same colour and those on the wires corresponding to the figures 100; 100,000 and 100 million being of the same colour. Preferably the wires are evenly spaced apart...
